    The road between Rexburg and Yellowstone was closed on friday due to a slide.

    My advice is talk to someone in Rexburg to get the whole story, and other route options. I am not sure how bad it is, and how long before it re-opens.

    Oh yes that is a good advice. We wanted to visit Jackson Hole from Rexburg but will take the South Route. Very helpful. Thanks a lot.

    Thanks to you guys and especially to @twobullz, the early stages of my trip are amazing. Saw a bear from my car in Yellowstone. He was 5 or 6 yards away. It was incredible.

    now I will be headed west. I already booked one dinner at Portland city Grill thanks to an advice on this board.

    I will sleep in an Airbnb around the west part of the city thanks to @THE HCP .

    Shoot me with your coffees, bars, restaurants, breakfasts spots or attractions. Thanks a lot.

    Arriving next week after a few days in Mt Hood. Is there a winery/vineyard you would recommend for a degustation and maybe buying a few bottles? Thanks again for everything
